Agile Management for Highly Reactive Companies

Monday, November 26th, 7pm
IE Business School, C/ María Molina 4, Aula E-108 

During the last decade, Agile methods for software development (including Scrum, eXtreme Programming or Kanban) have raised as the ‘Way To Go’ in order to deal with complex situations such as those faced by technical teams, while also reducing Project Management overhead, delivering fast and frequently to customers, increasing productivity, developing self-organizing teams and creating a new relationship with customers based on collaboration, interactions, feedback and value. But how can we be Agile inside a traditional, heavyweight, bureacratic organization? Are there any clues on the Agile movement that can help business be highly reactive in times of growing complexity and constant change? How con we manage our companies to unleash the talent, creativity and productivity of our teams? This talk will give some insights on how to grow Agile outside the boundaries of the technical team and start thinking on the Agile Enterprise.

The event will be held in english.
